At the Clearwater Marine Aquarium, an intern’s father had been deployed to Afghanistan. She got an early surprise.
Katheryn, an Atlanta native who has been interning at the aquarium was working with a dolphin when she got her surprise.
Her father, Special Agent Dalyrmple, had returned from Afghanistan earlier than expected.
The rest of the handlers at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium had it set up, and the cameras were all out.
Go ahead and cry. Nobody would hold that against you.
Special Agent Dalrymple deployed to Afghanistan in March 2020 and shortly after his daughter, Katheryn, accepted an internship with CMA 500 miles from home.
